This research was made to determine how the gender biases and discrimination against women are
perceived by the women trainer and administrators working in the private sports facilities and the
relationship of these perceptions with “organizational commitment” and “turnover intention”. The
study universe of the research consists of the 76 private sports facilities serving in the seven central
districts of the Ankara Metropolitan Municipality. A total of 89 women, which 75 of them are in
trainer and 14 of them are in administrator position are included in the sample from the 18 private
sports facilities in six central districts, which are identified as employing women trainers and
administrators among their staff. The Perceived Gender Biases and Discrimination Scale, whose
validity and reliability study is realized by Onay (2009) is used in this research. The data are analyzed
using SPSS 16.00 program. Findings show that the “Gender Bias” and “Gender Discrimination”
perceptions of women trainer and administrators working in private sports facilities differ based on
the work area and “Turnover Intention” differ based on the age groups on a significant level (p<0.05).
As a result, it is determined that women trainers perceive gender discrimination more than women
administrators; organizational commitment of women administrators are more than women trainers;
the perceived gender discrimination affect women trainer and administrator’s organizational
commitment in a negative direction and their turnover intentions in a positive direction.
